About this product
A 460cc driver with a thinner Ti 6-4 face and PING's Spinsistency technology (optimised bulge and roll) to help juniors get the ball airborne with more consistent spin.
A lower centre of gravity and higher MOI add forgiveness on off-centre hits, while crown turbulators and a lightweight graphite shaft help a junior generate clubhead speed.
